  1. Distributor vs. Producer Conflict: The producer gets the satellite money. The distributor (who buys theatrical rights) gets the theatrical net. In Ok Jaanu, if a distributor paid ₹35 Cr for theatrical rights and only recovered ₹31 Cr, they lost money (₹4 Cr loss), even if the producer profited. The Index often obscures the distributor's loss.

  3. The "Cult" Fallacy: Ok Jaanu did not have a long shelf life. The Index measures short-term safety, not legacy.
